INTERVIEW: With Phillip Phillips
IC: Okay, so I took to Twitter to ask fans some questions for you and a lot of them were about your upcoming album! What can we know about it? Is there a title yet? Release date? Anything?
PP: We’re trying to get it out in May at some point. We kind of have a date, but we have to make sure it’s all good. The album is going to be a little more rock, some darker songs, still some good little love songs. The music is going to be more ‘me’ and I’ve gotten to spend a little more time on them and really just make a good judgement on the songs. Live with them a little bit. And I’m excited for people to hear.
IC: No name? Or are you just not allowed to tell us?
PP: I think I have a name, but I don’t know if I can say it right now (laughs).
IC: Okay, fair enough. Did you collaborate with anyone on your new album?
PP: No, it was just me and my band. We’ve been in the studio and just worked the songs out, so the album really has a band vibe, you know. That’s what’s really cool about it too.
IC: How many songs can we expect to be on the album?
PP: Uh, I think it’s something like 11 or 12 songs or something like that… I think, I think!
IC: Don’t worry, we won’t hold you to that. Do you have a favourite song or one that speaks to you the most from your new album?
PP: Yeah, I have a lot of favourite songs on this album! There’s so many different emotions and different feels and vibes so there’s a lot of them that I’m really excited for. I’m actually trying to get them all in the right order now so I can’t give you like a specific track number yet but I don’t know, there’s so many. I’m excited for them all.
IC: In contrast to your debut album, The World From The Side of The Moon, how would you describe this second album?
PP: It’s going to be a little more technical, heavier, rock. Definitely going to be a guitar-driven album. All the songs are going to be a little different. Some weird, creepy songs, so yeah.
IC: Some weird, creepy songs?
PP: Well yeah… But not really. You’ll see.
IC: Okay well I am loving your latest single, “Raging Fire.” Are there any plans for a music video in the near future?
PP: Yeah! Hopefully we’re gonna have one out by the end of this month. We’re actually filming it in a few days. I’m really excited, we have a really cool idea for it, hopefully it doesn’t suck.
IC: I’m sure it won’t! Another thing that your fans were interested in was touring for this year! Do you have any plans to tour the US, South America, Europe (especially the UK, I got a lot of questions from there)?
PP: Definitely, hopefully we’re going to be touring the US. We got a lot of stuff getting planned out. As far as Europe and South America, I hope by the end of this year or the beginning of next year at some point because I loved South America when we went, and I love Europe too but we didn’t get to spend too much time there so I want to go back.

Let me just leave this thread before I bring anymore shame onto my self 
Do they mean for Raging Fire? What is this mess 
so funny, they're thirsty and good for Phillips
but the song is out of the Top 100 
Only SMASH hits get to do that in HAC. Just a little bummed about its itunes position, but we just gotta have faith as fans and hope for the best.
